Goals:
This course (EEE344) introduces the student to the design of digital logic circuits, both
combinational and sequential, and the design of digital systems. The student is also introduced to
the use of computer-aided design tools to develop complex digital circuits. The behavioral level
design of a digital system is often performed using hardware description languages (HDLs) such
as Verilog.
Students taking this course will learn how to use Verilog to describe behavior and
functionalities of any complex digital systems. The gate level implementation of a digital system
is mapped to a Field programmable gate array (FPGA) device for verification. Therefore,
students will go through the entire design process of describing hardware using software
languages, mapping it into gates and simulating the gate level design, and finally load the
schematic design on to a silicon chip to verify the functionality of the system in hardware.
Objectives:
1. Ability to use computer-aided design tools for design of complex digital logic circuits.
2. Ability to model, simulate, verify, and synthesize with hardware description languages.
3. Ability to design and prototype with programmable logic.
